My hot take TM is: do what you want but make sure you have realistic expectations and a plan B. I quit my business software job to make games because I really wanted to (and making games in the evenings after work was tiring). But I didn't have savings and i was naive.https://twitter.com/TomGrochowiak/status/1093838359116611584 …

And yet here you are. Same for me -- I totally overestimated my ability to finish a game before I run out of money, but it was still worth it in the end. And worst case scenario -- I'd just have to get back to day job.

Obviously that depends on one's life/financial situation. Mine was dire but at least I didn't have to worry about being evicted (at least not within a year) & could borrow some money from a friend. Still, it's better to take that risk sooner rather than later imho (if you can).

it also depends where you live, taxation, lifestyle, etc. that's why it's always impossible to say something that works for everyone. Every situation is different
